Another Megachurch pairing: T.D. Jakes and Joel Osteen
Posted by Joel in False Prophets, Joel Osteen on July 25, 2010
Mark Stevens is going to have a field day with this one, I suspect.
I do find it interesting that Jakes is a oneness preacher and that Osteen has no doctrine really whatsoever…
They’d known each other for years, but not well.
“I have always loved him from afar and prayed for him, as he rose to the office of assuming his father’s mantle,” said Jakes. “I watched from a distance and prayed for him and imagined that it was my son. I was praying for him like he was a little kid, you know.”
“But you know, you all aren’t that different in age. He’s a few years older than you, but yet you seem to feel as though he’s almost like a father figure instead of an older brother,” I said.
“You know, it’s funny because I always thought that and maybe just because of the presence he carries and you know again, I think he was preaching when he was 10 years old out in the woods,” said Osteen. “So you just see him like that and I realize he’s not that much older than me. When I got with him one on one, it was more like brothers.”
And like brothers, they have a lot in common. (here)

Oh, and he says that the Oil Spill in the Gulf is God’s punishment for the Oil Industry.

In this chronicle of mutations within the Pentecostal movement, we learn to distinguish among the Prosperity Gospel, Word of Faith, and New Apostolic Movements — and we learn why it matters.

I watch Ed Schultz when nothing else is on, and I cannot find the remote, and I cannot sleep – that’s not exactly fair, I mean, I like Ed, but I am so sick and tired of politics lately. Plus, I have more than my fair share of books to read. But I did catch him last week, at least a little bit. He has asking where the religion community was on health care.
